Susan Sarandon Takes on TV

Hollywood is officially over. Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating a little bit. But Susan Sarandon just signed up to do a TV series called Graves to air on the Epix channel in the fall of 2016.

Sarandon will play Margaret Graves, who is a former First Lady of the United States. Her husband is played by Nick Nolte. It’s been 20 years since her husband left office, and Margaret Graves has developed political ambitions of her own to help her husband right the wrongs of his administration.

Joshua Michael Stern is writer and creator for Graves.

Sarandon and Nolte also worked together in 1992 on the film Lorenzo’s Oil.
